The Age of Dragons expansion set has launched! These 50 new cards will be immediately available for crafting and will drop in all standard booster packs alongside the previous sets. A new card pack with ONLY Age of Dragons cards is now available for silver points as well! Check the cards list and click the dragon-icon filter to peruse all the awesome new cards!
Many gameplay balance and general improvements have launched alongside this patch as well. Enjoy these comprehensive patch notes!
- TOURNAMENT MODE: Tournament mode's price has been reduced to 3000 CP! New tournaments started at this price will also use a new, much more random prize and reward table!
GLOBAL MECHANICS
- CHANGED CARDS MECHANIC: Cards that were changed with a patch can now be traded in for full shards for 7 days immediately following the change.
- GOLD: It is no longer possible to ever exceed 10 gold. If a spell would cause you to immediately exceed this limit (e.g. Merchant's Favor at 9g+), you draw a card instead.
- LIGHTNING: Chain lightning is no longer considered part of the unit's attack; instead, lightning is now a triggered spell that deals normal damage after the attack (similar to School of Pyromancy). The main benefit of this is that the damage display for lightning will be separated from the attack value, making it more clear what is happening. Many combo interactions with lightning effects will no longer work, while new combos will now be possible.
CARD CHANGES
MOMENTUM: Changed completely. 1g, give a unit with 4 movement or more +2 attack and +2 health.
SMUGGLING RING: 0g, gain 1 gold plus 1 gold for each enemy unit. This card can be traded for its full shard value for a limited time after this release.
THE RAT KING: Stats reduced to 2/3, but he now creates rats any time he deals damage (including retaliation).
ALPHA STRIKE: Instead of returning to your hand indefinitely, it now only returns to your hand once. Cost reduced to 2.
KUNAI: Now 2 gold for 2 damage, regain the card ONCE if it kills an enemy.
SHIELD OF THE PROTECTOR: Effect reduced to +3 health.
WILL OF THE MARTYR: Due to stronger interactions with new age of dragons cards, the buff effect reduced from +2/+2 to +1/+1
SCOUT: HP reduced to 4.
EARTH KNIGHT: HP increased to 9.
SHIELD KNIGHT: Changed to a 3/6 with 2 movement, so that new players have more variety in unit move speed.
In order to curb the ability of players to quickly cycle through their deck, the number of very cheap cards with "draw a card" attached has been reduced. The following changes were made:
PILLAR OF ANNOYANCE: Now 0g, no longer draws a card.
DIRTY FIGHTING: Now reduces enemy attack by 2, no longer draws a card.
DARK BOLT: Cost and damage increased to 2.
CHAOTIC STORM: Cost increased to 2.
CLOAK OF FLAMES: Effect increased to 3, removed "draw a card".
STEALTH: Cost increased to 3.
STANCE OF THE PONDERING TURTLE: Now costs 1 gold, gives +3 hp and -1 attack, no longer draws a card.
STANCE OF THE SWIFT MANTIS: Now costs 1 gold, gives +3 movement but -1 attack, no longer draws a card.
STANCE OF THE FIERCE TIGER: Now costs 1 gold, gives +2 attack but -1 movement, no longer draws a card.
